And then onwards from Glossop on the 341 operated by Stotts of Oldham, who will cease to run service buses with the Bee Network. Alighting that at Broadbottom found us a West Mids Train livery 323 Photo courtesy of @florence3099.insanity.tube

And now we have made it into Derbyshire on our Greater Manchester System One tickets. Being able to travel cross boundary on a multi operator ticket is not too uncommon but the next journey is entirely within Derbyshire and still valid on this ticket

Today wanderings are on System One in the bits of Derbyshire that it views as Greater Manchester

Confusingly the Bee Network website suggests that it calls on the "side of the road towards Manchester City Centre". There is a frequent bus service through here to Manchester... It stops on the opposite side of the road when going in that direction. Could do with a little clarification...

A rather damp Urmston this evening After an intermediate call at the poorly served Trafford Park station where very few got off, it was noticeable that a large number got off here on a busy peak time service.

This evenings wanderings really begin under the arches at Manchester Oxford Road. I'm headed out on 2O80 - 16:46 Manchester Oxford Road out towards Liverpool Lime Street, on the CLC via Warrington Central. A rare opportunity for me to board a train at the buffer ends of Platform 5 at Oxford Road

I seem to have started a trend of people buying silly stamps from Philatelink... Well, I didn't start it, I was first tempted by @ignoredambience.bsky.social
